I don't like when they call a not-rare coin rare

"Could there be a third "D" on the other side?"
I'm thinking a bidding frenzy could ensue with this kind of advertising.
I would advertise like this myself but I don't have any 1916 dimes with even two "D's" on the other side.

Coin advertising "turn on" is allowed here,in other words.
I'll tell you what's not so rare in the ebay coin world:
"L@@K" appears 2071 times in 444978 titles under US Coins on ebay as we speak.
Numbers like this kind of turn me on.

"L(©¿©)K Super 1909-S Corroded Lincoln Head Cent"
Now this is a LOOK on ebay that is fresh and exciting.
Turnon followed quickly by turnoff is what we got here.

COINS FOR MEN!
My wife is an avid collector, but I am picture this conversation.
"Hi, Bret, this is Laura Sperber (or any other successful woman coin dealer). I was going to spend six figures on the coins in your ad, but they're for men so I am going to pass. Have a nice day."
You know,losing weight would be a positive result of getting in shape by excercising and what better way to do this than while having some fun.
I have concluded that my inability to lose weight by metal detecting,in earlier days, must have had something to do with the celebratory donut(s) I would treat myself to after making good find(s).Two good finds in the same hole,two donuts.The late '70's were my halcyon days,the donut days,if you will.
In these more recent times,I have finally lost some weight and attribute this to significantly fewer good MD finds hence fewer donuts being consumed.
The mini-donuts I would celebrate with are not to be underestimated.They come packaged in convenient-for-the-field six packs,adding to their allure.

<< <i>I recall several years ago, Julian Liedman (Julian on this board) ran an ad in either Coin World or Numismatic News, stating that he was "... the largest dealer in rare coins". For those of you who knew Julian several pounds ago, this was a delightful play on words. At the time the ad was running, at a Baystate Show in Boston, attendees were stunned to hear Coleman Foster (another 'giant' in the coin business) yell across the bourse floor, challenging Julian on his claim to being the "largest coin dealer". All in good fun, from two of the 'largest' dealers in coins. >>
Coleman has most dealers beat on height alone...
